London, Dec 6 (IBNS): British security forces have foiled terror plot to assassinate UK Prime Minister Theresa May, media reports said on Wednesday.

A terror plot to assassinate Prime Minister Theresa May has been foiled,  sources have confirmed to Sky News.

Sky's Crime Correspondent Martin Brunt was quoted as saying by the media outlet's website: "It's the latest in a number of terror plots that police and MI5 believe they've foiled this year."

"It is in essence an extreme Islamist suicide plot against Downing Street. Essentially police believe that the plan was to launch some sort of improvised explosive device at Downing Street and in the ensuing chaos attack and kill Theresa May, the Prime Minister," he was quoted saying.
